Part II

I am very grateful to have been awarded the BECA Part II Engineering Scholarship. This allowed me to encourage myself and others to make the most of all opportunities presented to us, and to achieve everything we can. This scholarship money has allowed to me to not feel financially pressured if I need to take time off work to focus on my studies or other commitments, including being a leader for the Women in Engineering Network, and playing hockey. I also had the opportunity to attend a presentation evening at BECA, where I met some of their employees and executive team.

The HEB Construction Scholarship significantly lightened my financial burden and allowed me to focus on the most important aspects of university, which are to learn and to fully involve myself in student life. For this I am extremely grateful. The scholarship helped fund my recent exchange to Berkeley at the University of California, which was a once in a lifetime opportunity. HEB also offers summer work to scholarship winners, exposing them to exciting and unique projects. In the long term, I would like to combine both my engineering and commerce degrees to develop an exciting and varied career so I can make a difference to the world.
